Case Study – Surrey

We are pleased to share a recent case involving the redevelopment of a Grade II listed property in Surrey, which was previously in a state of significant dereliction.

Wey Bridging Finance supported the borrower (introduced via an experienced broker) in structuring funding for both the comprehensive refurbishment of a listed barn and the planning application for a self-build plot within the garden.

The transaction required a bespoke funding solution to accommodate the complexity of the scheme, including:

•   A sensitively restored and modernised heritage residence
•   A blended funding structure covering both heavy refurbishment and land with planning application.
•  Specialist lending against a listed asset with elevated restoration risk.
• Ongoing coordination across planning, construction, and funding stakeholders.
•  Allowing a significant partial redemption, upon the granting of planning consent.

The project has now been successfully delivered, resulting in a significant value uplift and full scheme transformation:

•        A sensitively restored and modernised heritage residence.
•        Successful planning application granted on the rear garden plot.
•        A combined site valuation in the region of £1.5 million.

This transaction reflects our continued appetite for development and bridging finance where traditional lenders are often unable to provide the necessary flexibility.
